We soldiers of all branches need to be heard. The leadership has lost our way. Generals who believe this war is wrong have been forced to retire. I understand the president is commander in chief. But he needs some advise from the experts. Not just insider neocons like Cheney, Fife, Rumsfield, Wolfowitz and Rove.

These donors gave the largest amounts to Rep. Ron Paul, the long-shot Republican candidate from Texas who has acknowledged defeat in the nomination process but continues to campaign, and Sen. Barack Obama, the Democrat from Illinois.

During the reporting period, Paul — a former Air Force surgeon who broke with his party to vote against the Iraq war — received the most military contributions, with $201,271.

Army Times also had this exact article in the last paper we got... Thanks for posting I'd forgotten about it. There was even a nice little graph that showed Paul towering over the others.
